---

Description

Episode #82

In the case of Gonzalez v. Trevino, the core revolves around a First Amendment retaliation claim, presenting a pivotal examination of free speech rights and government response. The essence of such a claim lies in the allegation that an individual's speech, protected under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution, was met with retaliatory actions by government officials or entities, hence infringing upon their rights to free speech. As the Supreme Court entertained oral arguments for this case, the justices were tasked with dissecting intricate legal precedents, the specifics of the retaliatory actions alleged, and the broader implications for free speech protections.
